Miracles

MIRACLES!!

What an awesome week. We
had some amazing lesson with R. He is doing well. He set a goal of being baptized in March. It is
so exciting for him. He is also reading in the Book of Mormon. He really likes
that it is a story. He said it’s pretty easy to understand once you get
started. He reads it out of the Chinese one first. Then he reads it from the
English one.

Wednesday was a
miracle day!!! The 13th, I could really feel Dan with us this day. I am not
sure if it is his anniversary this day. But we were able to see a
lady who we tracted into last week. (the lady who we shared
about families) she didn't answer the door. We were about to walk
away and then I heard a voice "stay a little longer and put the Plan of
Salvation pamphlet through the mail slot)" So we did. As we were
writing on it, she opened the door. She was really happy
to see us. Later that day it was a blizzard we walked to a
potential Investigators house 4 miles. I felt like we should walk. When we
arrived she wasn't in. Sister Lewis said we should knock some random
doors. I said sure. We were walking and I felt like we should walk
down this street. We knocked on some doors. Nothing...and then
we knocked on M door. She let us in and we were able to teach her the
Restoration. Her kids were there and it was great. They really liked it. She
told us for some reason she just remembers Joseph Smith. She doesn't know
why she remembers that....But we do! :) It was a miracle that we found her.
Hopefully the spirit touched her heart. It was a miracle that she let us
in. That rarely happens in England!!!! :) yay!! We taught J
that night with the Chinese member from Nott’s 1. We had a really good
lesson with him. The Spirit was really strong. We watch the Restoration DVD, and
invited him to be baptized. He accepted and picked the day. The 25th
of February. Miracle, next Monday. We need to teach him everything
else. But he is defiantly feeling the spirit. He knows that the Book of
Mormon is true. That is what started it all. He said it helps people.
Why would it be a bad book if it helps people know that Jesus is
there?

Zone Conference was
great. They really focused on Accountability, and Attributes of Christ. It
was a very spiritual mtg. In missionary work you will have bad days and say
this is really hard. But when you account to the Lord at the end of the
day; it makes it all worth it. You know He is listening, that you are
trying your best. And say “what more can I do". I really want to work on
this and really gain those Christ-like attributes.

How amazing is that!!
Things are going well here in Nottingham!! :) I love it! I know this
gospel is true. We have a loving Heavenly Father, who wants us all to live
with Him again. We have an Elder brother, Our Savior and
Redeemer who came into the world for you and me. To give us the option to
use the Atonement. He is there to help us to make us stronger. the Atonement is
amazing. It not only helps the sinner but also the sinned against. When
we use the Atonement we will have peace. I am so grateful for the knowledge of
the Savior. This gospel is amazing and it is blessing the lives of His
children.

Just to let you know
this next week we might not have p-day I am not sure. Transfers are different.
They are cutting it off 4 days early, so we have transfers next Saturday the 2
of March. So I don’t know if we will be having a p-day next week or not
